    Go away and fuck off with that terminology including all of Ireland, lived here my whole life and I've never heard that mentioned once. I've heard other ignorant geographical statements like the "British isles" but never once have I heard the shite you decided to put out.

      Sorry, I'm open for correction, didn't mean any harm. I genuinely thought what I said was right at the time of writing (only just woke up). I now realise it's wrong but now I don't know what is definitely right.

        England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are all countries, they form the UK. Britain is England, Scotland and Wales.

        Ireland has nothing to do with it what having fought for a millennia for self rule.
